It was still the rather spacious Hokage's office, but compared to the last time I came here, the few ANBU hidden aside had disappeared. Presumably, the Fourth Hokage had driven them away early in the morning, and was replaced by a man with a mouth in his mouth. The old man with glasses and a pipe - the Sandaime Hokage.
Being stared at by two fire shadows would probably scare most people to the point of peeing. But Le Yuan, the person who made such a big fuss, seemed to be fine. Except for a bit of drunken blush on his face, his whole person was as calm as he could be.
"Long time no see, Yondaime-sama, how are you doing? This must be the Sandaime Hokage, the Ninja hero in the ninja world. He is indeed as charming as ever!"
Seeing Le Yuan greeting them familiarly, the Fourth Hokage seemed a little dumbfounded. Maybe Le Yuan didn't know how big the commotion he had just made was, but it was definitely a big commotion in the entire Konoha ninja circle, and it was very likely to be known to the secret agents ambushing in each village, and they would be sent to each village at some point. In the hands of the shadow.
The Sandaime Hokage, standing next to the Fourth Hokage, was quietly sizing up Le Yuan. He had already found out clearly from the Fourth Hokage that Le Yuan was introduced to him by his proud disciple Orochimaru. , just getting Orochimaru's approval is enough to prove Le Yuan's strength.
Looking at Le Yuan who had some similarities with the Fourth Hokage, the Third Hokage didn't look like a person who had been a Hokage at all. On the contrary, he smiled like an old man next door and asked Le Yuan: "What's going on with Orochimaru recently?" Like? His Sound Ninja Village should be developing pretty well, right? Will the burden of a village of shadows be very heavy?"
This is like a question from a father asking about his son's recent development. It would be almost unimaginable if it appeared in World No. 1. However, in this peaceful and developing world No. 2, it is a very common thing. Most people may not know it, but almost all the forces treat the Sound Ninja Village as a small Konoha Village. These two seemingly separate A ninja village simply wears a pair of pants.
"Of course it's very good. The development of Sound Ninja Village is as stable as ever. The whole village is developing very healthily..."
Since the Sandaime Hokage wanted to know more about the situation in the Sound Ninja Village, Le Yuan naturally told the Sandaime Hokage a little bit about what he saw and heard in the Sound Ninja Village. It was not like Le Yuan was called to the Hokage's office to ask questions. The words were spoken, but it seemed like they were just having fun.
However, after Le Yuan finished his statement, the fourth generation Hokage, who had been watching quietly, had a stern look on his face. This change was seen by Le Yuan, and he naturally understood that the real questioning was about to begin, but he, who was used to seeing tricks, also You can see how the Fourth Hokage dealt with it.
"Le Yuan, do you know how much trouble you have caused today by provoking the Uchiha clan at will? If a dispute arises, the loss of Konoha will be immeasurable. Coupled with the battle between you and the Uchiha Fiqiu clan leader, one day If you are not careful, one person could die in battle, which would be a disaster for the entire Konoha... "
The Fourth Hokage was chattering endlessly about the trouble Le Yuan had caused today. In most cases, Le Yuan went in with one ear and out the other. This kind of thing was just said out of time, not to mention today's loss was considered to be in the fourth year. Within the control of Daime Hokage, no irreparable damage was caused.
"...Don't you think about it? Why are you going to trouble the Uchiha clan for no reason? Do you really think that you are not afraid of the Uchiha clan's revenge at all?"
The fourth generation Hokage feels that iron cannot be transformed into steel. Le Yuan's strength and potential have basically been revealed in today's battle. He is so young (looks less than 20 years old) and so talented (defeated the veteran Jonin Uchiha Tomigaoka), even if he has not reached the Kage level, he is almost there. If he is trained well, he is fully capable of training him as the next generation of Kage.
"You can't blame me entirely. I just went to earn living expenses. Who told me to be just an unemployed vagrant in Konoha? If I didn't make some money, I would really be begging to survive. I didn't want to, who What if someone has been unwilling to teach me?"
Even the third generation Hokage on the side could hear the complaint in Le Yuan's words, not to mention the fourth generation Hokage who was one of the parties involved. In the letter he received from Orochimaru, Orochimaru's summary of Le Yuan's arrangements had only four words: "Arrange by yourself."
Orochimaru, who has become an outsider, has no ability to force Minato Namikaze, who is the shadow of the village, to teach Rakuen [Flying Thunder God Technique]. He can't find any reason, whether it is emotional or rational, so Minato Namikaze teaches him A secret that is not told to Konoha Village to Le Yuan, an outsider.
Therefore, after Le Yuan moved into Konoha Village, the Fourth Hokage kept him free and tried to find out the reality of Le Yuan through daily surveillance. This investigation lasted for a whole month, and Namikaze Minato understood Raku Yuan's thoughts very well. Being left alone for a month made no one feel comfortable.
"Okay, today is the right time. Le Yuan, let me ask you, are you willing to join Konoha?"
The Yondaime Hokage's eyes suddenly became extremely serious. After all, this matter is not easy, and it is related to how Le Yuan will deal with himself in Konoha Village in the future. No matter what Le Yuan thinks, he is only a temporary resident of Konoha Village now and cannot be fully accepted by Konoye Village.
"Join Konoha? Become a ninja of Konoha?"
Le Yuan asked the Yondaime Hokage, after all, joining Konoha is too big, and it is difficult to speak without any restrictions. Faced with Le Yuan's rhetorical question, the Fourth Hokage chose to nod.
"No problem, but it's just my identity in this world. You should know that I will leave one day. This identity of Konoha ninja cannot bind me for the rest of my life!"
Le Yuan has no doubts about joining Konoha Village. After all, he is not a member of any force in this world, so there is no burden problem at all. He joined Konoha just because there is Namikaze Minato here.
At this moment, Namikaze Minato nodded to the Sandaime Hokage on the side, and then the Sandaime Hokage took out a Konoha forehead protector from the cabinet on the side and handed it to Raku Yuan.
"Okay, from today on you are a member of Konoha Village. I will also teach you the time and space ninjutsu you want, but if you can learn it, I will not guarantee it. But if you dare to betray Konoha, Konoha will I'll hang you wherever you go..."
Le Yuan said nothing and put the Konoha forehead protector on his head, but after putting it on, he immediately thought of a very important question. He is not a regular ninja who came out of the ninja academy. How to calculate his level? It is impossible for him to be a master who is not inferior to Naruto and be classified as a genin.
"Ahem, that Yondaime Hokage-sama, am I considered a jounin or a chuunin now? You can't be sure to arrange it into a genin, right? If that's the case, I can't stand it. You see, my strength is not weak. No matter how bad you are, you can't just be like a bunch of brats!"
Seeing Raku Yuan asking about his level so anxiously, Minato Namikaze grinned widely. He took out a document, and it turned out to be a file that even Raku Yuan could tell was accurate. The content inside is Le Yuan's own.
It turns out that this wave of Feng Shui Sect has already arranged everything, and Le Yuan is now a glorious special jounin of Konoha. This is because Le Yuan has not succeeded even a little bit, otherwise he would be a Konoha master. Leaf jounin.
After all, Le Yuan's record and strength are real. He couldn't suppress the defeat of Uchiha Tomigaoka even if he wanted to. If the Uchiha clan knew that the person who defeated their clan leader was a genin or chuunin, they would inevitably not be suppressed. Thinking it was intentional to belittle their Uchiha clan.
After being incorporated into Konoha's establishment, Namikaze Minato did not break his promise and soon gave the essence of training [Flying Thunder God Technique] to Raku Yuan. However, although it was the essence, it was not a ninjutsu training method, but a bunch of Heap of experimental data class information. The above describes the research and understanding of time and space by all previous generations of practitioners. According to Namikaze Minato, if you cannot understand the essence of time and space ninjutsu from this point of view, you will not be able to complete the following practices.
[Flying Thunder God Jutsu] is indeed a very difficult ninjutsu, and it is indeed not something that ordinary people can use. This space-time ninjutsu is different from Obito's natural space technique [Kamiui]. [Kamiui] can be used freely with only the Sharingan, but the use of [Flying Thunder God Jutsu] is accompanied by great risks. Without profound attainments, it is easy to die in this ninjutsu.
There is no doubt that Namikaze Minato, who has mastered the "Flying Thunder God Technique", is already considered an expert in space. I have extremely profound knowledge on how to open space, how to use space to open suitable places, and how to ensure that I can safely travel through space.
The reason why space ninjutsu is dangerous is because the different space that is opened is not a normal space. Without very professional knowledge and ability or rich experience, the opened different space will definitely swallow up all the dregs and make it impossible to pass through. Different spaces achieve the purpose of space transfer.
The scrolls that Namikaze Minato gave to Rakuan contained his and the second-generation Hokage's understanding of space. It can be said that without these, ordinary people would never be able to successfully master the space-time ninjutsu.
Le Yuan is also one of the first to learn about space. After all, space is really profound and unpredictable, and most people can't even think of understanding it even if they look at the scroll. And Le Yuan finally has an advantage that ordinary people don't have. Others try to complete space ninjutsu from theory because they don't understand space at all. However, Le Yuan has mastered the space ability to reversely verify these space theories. Compared with ordinary people, he can Said there was a big shortcut.
The principles of space that ordinary people cannot get into at all, but for Le Yuan, most of his body has already entered the door. Now he only needs these theories to improve his understanding of space.
For a time, Le Yuan was eagerly absorbing a large amount of knowledge. The technique of [Flying Thunder God Technique] was no longer important to Le Yuan. On the contrary, the hearts of Namikaze Minato and the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama were more important.
However, Le Yuan cannot stay at home forever and study the contents of the scroll. He has now become a Konoha ninja, and now he can obey orders from the Hokage at any time.
No, just a few days later he received a message from the Fourth Hokage, asking him to report to the Hokage Building.
The Hyuga clan held a banquet to celebrate Hinata's rescue, and there seemed to be a happy event to be announced. As the person who really rescued Hinata, the fourth generation seemed to want to bring Le Yuan to the banquet.
